I am on guard today. 24 hours of bleah, except for the entertaining period between 11pm - 5am when all the drunks roll home and expect us to pay for their cabs because they ran out of money and threw up in them.
But Fridays are a half day for everyone else ...
On the up side, at least we can have our laptops.
I am also peeved that I can not afford this:

The yacht features two living levels that are connected by a glass staircase and mezzanine.
A NEW superyacht designed to resemble the shape of a whale is set to offer the ultimate in luxury - for $200m.
Unveiled at the Monaco Boat Show last week, the Beluga yacht won the title of 'The Best New Super Yacht Concept'.
But the ship is not just a concept – its designers are in talks with a major Dutch manufacturer to produce the vessel.
The spacious yacht features two living levels connected by a glass staircase and mezzanine.
The sunroof opens like the mouth of a whale and measures 100 square metres, a spokesperson for Pure-sang, the company that designed the yacht, said.
The owner’s suite is located on the roof in an oval, glass room while the belly of the Beluga holds five luxury suites with extendable balconies and ensuite spa.
The front of the yacht will include a beach club with a 14m long swimming pool, cocktail bar and a lounge area spanning two levels.
Also on board will be a gym, theatre, bar, library and greenhouse.
It can accommodate 30 staff in separate facilities, including their own living area and kitchen.
The tender garage can transform into a nightclub with a glass-lit dance floor and sound system.
The boat was also inspired by the fairytales of Moby Dick and Pinocchio.
